The acceleration of the ball can be easily found using the kinematic equation if = vi + at. Where vi = initial velocity, if = final velocity, a = acceleration, and t = seconds. The acceleration is -0.1 m/s^2.

We can't say anything about the direction of acceleration, because there's no
information about the direction of the ball at any time during the observation.
To be honest about it, the question says "velocity" twice, but it only tells us
speed, not velocity.

a = 15 m/s - 25 m/s/2 = -5 m/s

The initial concentration of chlorine gas is 0.20 M and the rate of consumption of nitric oxide is?
The reaction rate is 1.5x10^-2 M/s and I need to know at 10 seconds the amount of Cl2 gas. The balanced equation is 2 NO (g) + Cl2 (g) 2 NOCl (g). Please help
How many seconds does it take for salt to dissolve?
20 seconds
How many seconds are in a 40 hour work week?
40 hours x 60 minutes per hour x 60 seconds per minute = 144,000 seconds. Final answer = 144,000 seconds in a 40 hour work week.
How do you convert 271 milliseconds to seconds?
You divide by 1,000. So, 271 milliseconds equals 0.271 seconds.
How many minutes is one kilosecond?
1000 seconds.
What is the vehicles velocity after 1.0 seconds?
That depends on its initial velocity and its acceleration. V1 = V0 + a * t
When acceleration occurs?
Acceleration occurs when velocity changes over time. The formula for it is as follows: a = (Vf - Vi) / t a: acceleration (meters/seconds2) Vf: Final velocity (meters/seconds) Vi: Initial Velocity (meters/seconds) t: Time (seconds)
An arrow in flight has an initial velocity of 65 meters per second and 10 seconds later it has a velocity of 35 meters per second Which is the acceleration of the arrow?
Acceleration of the arrow is -3m/s2A = (velocity minus initial velocity) / time
''How do calculate velocity?
To calculate velocity using acceleration, start by multiplying the acceleration by the change in time. For example, if the acceleration is 10 m/s2 and the change in time is 5 seconds, then there is a 50 m/s increase in velocity. Then, add the initial velocity to the increase in velocity.
What is a cars acceleration if it travels 0 to 55 miles per hour in 6 seconds?
Acceleration = Change in Velocity / Change in Time a = (Final Velocity - Initial Velocity) / (Final Time - Initial Time) = (55-0)/(5-0) = 55/5 a = 11 m/s^2
What is the velocity of an object that starts at 45 mph and accelerates at a rate of -10 mphsec for 3 seconds?
the final velocity = initial velocity + acceleration x time; since acceleration is negative final velocity = 45 - 10x3 = 45 -30 = 15 mph
A braking time of 1.5 to 2 seconds what is the final velocity?
You need more details.The final velocity could be 0However, you need to know the initial velocity, and the braking acceleration, and perhaps other acceleration/deceleration factors to know the true answer.
What will be the final velocity if the acceleration of 10 meters per second squared is sustained for 7 seconds?
It will depend upon the initial velocity of the body. If 'u' be the initial velocity of the body, then the final velocity will be: v = u + at (v = final velocity, a = acceleration, t = time) i.e., v=u+10*7 = (u + 70) m/sec. If u=0 (i.e the initial velocity be zero) then final velocity, v=70 m/sec.
If an aircraft on its take-off run has a steady acceleration of 3 meters per second squared what velocity does the aircraft gain in 4 seconds?
Linear Velocity = Initial Velocity (m/s) + Acceleration (m/s2) * t 43.2 km/h
What is the velocity of car if it is moving with constant acceleration?
I'm assuming you are not talking about constant acceleration, which in itself iscontinuous. If you are talking about constant (meaning it's just a number, and not a function itself) acceleration, than just use the formula:v = i + at, wherev = velocity, i = initial velocity, a = acceleration, and t = timeOtherwise, you need to have some calculus knowledge. A velocity function is just the antiderivative (integral) of an acceleration function.Say, acceleration was given as:a = 2ttake the integral of thatv =∫ 2t dt = (2/2)t2+c =t2+cIn this case, the c is the initial velocity.Example:An object moves with an acceleration determined by a=t+3 (in m/s^2). Find the velocity of the object after 10 seconds have passed, given that the object has an initial velocity of 2 m/s.a = t + 3v =∫( t + 3) dt = (1/2)t2 + 3t + c, with c being initial velocityv(10 seconds) = (1/2)(10)2 + 3(10) + (2) = 82 m/s
An apple falls from a tree and reaches the ground in 4 seconds with a velocity of 40m/s. What is the acceleration?
Using the acceleration formula, final acceleration is the final velocity minus the initial velocity over elapsed time. Final velocity you gave as 40m/s, and the initial velocity was zero (the apple was stationary on the tree), so the difference is 40 m/s. Divided by the time you gave, 4 s, this will be 10 m/sĀ²
11 ms in 5 seconds what is the acceleration?
It depends on what the initial velocity was. If it was 0, then: 11-0 = 2.2 m/s squared 5
